I've just received my 7th different mag mount from Spartan. Some of which I have more than one of. I use round neodymium magnets to mount them inside of my safe, which work incredibly well, and allow for customization without drilling holes all over the place. Which is good for someone like me because I am always acquiring more mags. If you're looking to organize magazines in your safe, Spartan products are good to go. I cannot comment on weapon mounts, as I have none of those. That said, I assume they are as good as the mag mounts.
Items owned:
AR-15 hanging mag mount
CZ Scorpion hanging mag mount
Glock hanging mag mount
Beretta 92fs hanging mag mount
UMP45 hanging mag mount
MP5 standing mag mount
12ga shell holder
All of these products are fantastic, and I would absolutely purchase again.
100% satisfied with all the Spartan products owned.
Got this and 2 AR mounts, they are super easy to set up and work just as they should. Holds fully loaded rifle/magazines with no issues. Easy to install, great addtion.
The product does exactly what I bought it for. What else can you ask for? Great product.
Exactly what I have been searching for. Solid 3D printing and fitment. Will purchase future needs from Spartan.
Good quality 3D printed pistol stand. I am definitely happy with the purchase.
I don't have a lot of room for an elaborate gun wall, but this allowed me to post this up behind my door and ready for anything. I sleep better knowing it's right there when/if I need it. Looks cool too!
Absolutely love this very sturdy!!!
Owned one for four years and it cracked from stress. Spartan replaced it immediately no questions asked with a better model. They stand behind their products. I would not hesitate to purchase another. Great customer service.
I have a hansen escort, what shot gun mount would work for it?
Very nice holder fits very well..customer service is great!!
Good overall results. I ordered the mount for a VR-80. My latch didn't lock into the mount. Emailed Spartan and they immediately sent a paid label to return the faulty mount, and shipped a replacement. It also failed with my shotgun. So they suggested that I try a Typhoon 12 mount and it locked. Problem solved.
